Santa Rosa's HVAC Experts

Fog in the morning, heat by afternoon

Santa Rosa has a warm-summer Mediterranean climate. On a typical summer day, fog or low cloud from the Pacific hangs around in the morning and evening, then burns off to very warm, sunny weather by late morning. That swing means many homes heat a little at dawn and cool by mid-afternoon on the same day, which suits a heat pump that does both.

Wet winters, dry summers

Most of the year's 32 inches of rain falls in the cool, wet winter, and summers are dry. Dry months bring dust and, in some years, wildfire smoke drifting into the valley. A tight house with a good filter and the right fan settings keeps indoor air cleaner; see ductwork and air quality.
